Can be used with both "traditional" and new "hands-only" CPR methods with no modification, an excellent value

Full 8-year factory warranty

Easy to upgrade

Simple Design: When we took our first Defibtech Lifeline AED out of its box to evaluate it a few years ago, everyone here at AED Superstore had a similar reaction. Initially, it was all about the design and overall look of the device.

It was then (and still is today) so wonderfully unlike any other AED on the market. Its beauty lies in its simplicity. And simplicity is a good thing when your task is to use an AED in a high-stress emergency. In fact, the Lifeline AUTO is a fully automatic version, with no shock button to push. Talk about simplicity!

LED indicator lights instead of a screen: The second feature we noticed was the Defibtech Lifeline's unique text prompts. The ingenious use of LEDs instead of an LCD screen meant the world now had an affordable AED with both text and voice prompting. That's never happened before!

We weren't the only ones who noticed. Defibtech won several prestigious awards for its efforts. And the design is as relevant to all of us today as it was those few short years ago. This is an easy-to-use AED for lay rescuers and medical professionals alike.

But enough about the beauty contest. At the end of the day, your patient won't care what your AED looks like.

Easy to use and rugged: Two of our AED Superstore staffers—both of them EMTs—wanted to know what the user experience would be like. So we put the device through its paces. The verdict came in. The Defibtech Lifeline and Lifeline AUTO AEDs were both easy enough for any rescuer to use in almost any environment, and plenty rugged for use by police, fire, and EMS agencies, or anyone else with a history of abusing their equipment.

Excellent sound quality and volume: Another comment we made was about the volume and clarity of the voice prompt of the Defibtech Lifeline and Lifeline AUTO AEDs. It only took a little research to verify the fact professional audio engineers had everything to do with the sound quality of these AEDs. You'll experience it yourself the moment you slide the battery pack into the side of this machine.

Features: The Defibtech Lifeline and Lifeline AUTO AED feature list is long, but you'll want to know if the right industry "buzzwords" apply to these devices. Our answer is "yes." It's biphasic, it has an IP Rating of 54, it records patient data, it easily transfers patient data using a data card, and it may be used in conjunction with the new "hands-only" CPR method without any modification to the device whatsoever.

Value: We think the Defibtech Lifeline and Lifeline AUTO AEDs are a great value, too. Just look at the list of items we include with every order...all with free UPS shipping in most cases:

One set of adult electrode pads

It's all good . . . Everything was received in a timely manner and instructions were easy to follow. Only wish that the DVD provided was for the fully automatic unit that we purchased. Trust our church never needs to use the unit but am glad we now have one handy.Reviewed by: Carl from Hagerstown / MD on 6/18/2014.
